The 49-year-old actress - who plays Hannah Stern - left fans envious of her character's stylish wardrobe, but eager to not let them go, Nicola sneaked a few items home.

She told Good Housekeeping magazine: "I've taken two pairs of shoes - they're really lovely. I don't wear high heels as I'm a trainers girl, but I've taken home two very high [pairs of] shoes; a nude pair and a black patent pair.

"I don't know when I'm going to wear them, but I might just leave them in the cupboard and look at them occasionally. I couldn't let them go."

Many fans of the drama series took to Twitter to share their love of the character's clothing.

One wrote: "Am I more jealous of Hannah's gorgeous clothes or amazing house? #TheSplit."

Another tweeted: "Wow. The Split was amazing. I'm sobbing like a baby. P.S. I want *all* of the clothes worn by the gorgeous female cast. #TheSplit."

What's more, Nicola couldn't resist taking a peak into other cast members wardrobes as she swiped a handbag from her on-screen sister Annabel Scholey, who plays Nina Defoe.

She added: "My sister Annabel had a really nice handbag in this series and I asked if I could take that away with me too."

The second series of the BBC drama so far has seen more beautiful outfits since Donna Air joined the series as Fi Hansen.

The former 'Byker Grove' actress signed up to star in the second series alongside fellow newcomer Ben Bailey Smith, playing celebrity power couple Fi and Richie Hansen who are involved in a messy, public divorce.

Abi Morgan, who created and wrote the series, was delighted to return to film the next chapter to explore the new characters.

She said at the time: "Sitting on set on the first day of filming I am always reminded what a joy and privilege it is to do what we do - tell stories.

"Returning for the second series of 'The Split', the world of high-end law and the stories of love, marriage and divorce in the metropolis ricochet through the lives of Hannah and her sisters.

"Relationships are challenged, friendships are tested and the lines between work and home blue. It's great to be back."
